Mass shooters are not disproportionately transgender, contrary to claims

There were 195 mass shootings committed by 200 people between 1966 and 2024 that met the VPP’s definition. Of those 200 mass shooters, VPP only listed one perpetrator as transgender: the 2023 Nashville shooter. That’s 0.50% of all the shooters.

So there have been a total of two trans people involved in mass shootings since 1966. In reality, almost every mass shooter has been a white male. And that’s based on actual data, not a cocaine fueled tweet storm from Don Jr.
